How the mastery of energy and space could enable civilization to rise to a higher level, which will be dubbed here as "Kardashevian Aspirations". A higher level of civilization could mean peace, prosperity and freedom for all, but you never know. (Somebody might find a way to screw it up.)

I'm looking for a way that may have been found to produce muons in quantity, which would appear to be necessary for energy production via muon catalyzed fusion. Perhaps Stephen Horvath has found a way to do that.

If a collider were used, how much energy for each particle? I wonder if some other means of fusion which is not at break even can be used in order to obtain a relatively low cost source of alpha particles.
